It doesn't work for gatefolds, though. I've been taking these for a few years and posting them on Twitter. Since I've started trying to wean myself off social media I thought I could post them here instead. Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

Rabshakeh Posted August 5, 2023 Report Share Posted August 5, 2023 Science Fiction is a great album, but part of me does wonder whether Broken Shadows is not the superior of the two records. I certainly prefer the CD reissue that combines the two, which is where I first heard them. Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

I think I began to lose interest because the rock element began to predominate a bit more. Edited August 5, 2023 by mjazzg Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

The whole "No Wave" scene was pretty fringey to begin with, and Ulmer was in on it pretty much because he was there, if you know what I mean. Barriers were being disregarded, Venn Diagrams were expanding, interesting possibilities were beginning to form. The Rough Trade mix is still my preferred, have the punch and jab of it's time. But it's a good record in any mix Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

But it's a good record in any mix Interesting. In the Uk the no wave thing wasn’t that popular so Blood Ulmer was marketed by Rough Trade as punk funk, slotting in with other UK bands of the time like A Certain Ratio, Pigbag, Pop Group, Rip Rig and Panic. Powerful record and a great picture sleeve on the Rough Trade single. Which I would post but I can’t seem to get round the size restrictions on this site.
